 Bleeding nose

Two times now when i came home from work i noticed that my platy’s nose is bleeding. I thought it was from him running after the crickets but i didn;t have any crickets in there this time.. Could it be that he is running into the glass? I think i need a bigger tank - mine is a 20gallon but he’s getting bigger (foot and a hlf now)
